George Washington defeated the Hessians, in the battle of Trenton, because he made a surprise attack on Christmas Day. Keep in mind the Hessians had just finished their partying, they were drunk, tired, and not ready for battle.
George Washington was able to defeat the Hessians during the Battle of Trenton in 1776 due to a combination of surprise, strategic planning, and the element of weather. Washington launched a surprise attack on the Hessian garrison while they were celebrating Christmas, catching them off guard. The bad weather also worked in Washington's favor, making it difficult for the Hessians to mount a proper defense.
